I'm currently in the prison chambers right now. Needless to say, I'm a little afraid to continue it. :P

I still think it's an awesome game so far though. :P

I could hardly play Trespasser, and in fact I never finished it. The game just about gave me a heart attack. I think its because I felt so vulnerable..

I don't know that it's possible for any form of video game to be frightening to me. Interesting or exciting, sure. But being afraid of something in a video game? That's quite a stretch.

I can't play 10 minutes without dying of boredom. Not my style of game.

But don't think I'm dissing you though. I can't play the original System Shock. That's right, 1994 System Shock. Don't ask me why; it scares the crap out of me.

The game is so much creepier when you play late at night in the dark with the headphones cranked up.

I think its the sound that truly makes the game scary

I'm not trying to brag here, but I wish I was scared as you guys. It would have made the experience 10 times better. I think it's due to watching too many horror movies and ghost tv shows.Elann2008

will a 5670 max it out? just been reading reviews, i haven't played a good horror game in ages.

I watched my buddy play the demo and it looked pretty good, but then neither of us had a clue what to do next so it kind of got annoying :P.

Yeah I'm at the prison, don't kow if I can make it any farther.:P

So this Amnesia more of a "BOO! Haha you jumped" type of scary, or a "If I step into that shadow I know I'm going to die" type of scary? :P I think the only game that ever got to me psychologically was Silent Hill 2 about 10 years agoistuffedsunny

Yeah, Silent Hill 2, when I was about 10 years old or something. I did not play far.. at all. :P

I did around 20 mins..for the demo. It's too scary for me (though admittedly I'm not a fan of horror). Never really picked it up, if the demo made me poo I'd hate to see what the full game can do.

I havent played amnesia, but i remember playing the first silent hill when i was younger and it was really scary, the sirens, empty school and everything made it fu**ing creepy imo

Amnesia, orphanage level in Thief 3 and Silent Hill 1 all scared the hell out of me.

the first time i beat painkiller: BooH's 1st level i didnt sleep for a week.. i kpet having nightmares lol

It's just a video game. Not very stimulating, as far fear goes.

Aliens vs. Predator (1999) - the marine campaign. You know those little crabs that jump on your face and uh... plant their seed?:P

after that was the carnival and then there was a few misc levels i cant recall the order of (swamp, fortress, city, mall, train station, city hall, and then came the one i stopped on last time i played it which was .. the hospital i believe..afer the cowboys with space helmets.. i had to call it quits.. that was to much wtf for me.

THA-TODD-BEAST

I think it has something to do with the fact that you're not really in any danger when playing a game. If I was really somewhere surrounded by monsters and unarmed I'd probably be paralyzed from fear. I'd curl up in a corner somewhere, piss myself and wait for a quick death. But when I'm playing a game it's not like a ghoul arm is gonna come out of the monitor and grab me by my throat. A game might startle me, like when a monster jumps out of the closet infornt of you, but it's just a momentary scare without any lasting effects, but I've never felt that I don't wanna keep playing the game because it's 'scary'.

how hard is the game? what are its mechanics?

I saw this thread title and was thinking "Amnesia". Glad to see I wasnt disapointed.

Absolutely fanstastic game. I thought I would never make it through myself. I hope you can make it...you will be glad in the end.

Great game, although I am not finding it that scary. I am about 2 hrs in and love the puzzle solving. It can be difficult at times, but once I find out what to do I realize it was pretty simple...

Usually, I am scared of horror/survival games. Dead Space, FEAR, first part of Undying and even a little bit of Doom 3 (more jump scares than anything though) have all scared the crap outta me. It would seem that this game might scare me as well, but so far no. I do love the atmosphere though and the gameplay. Looking forward to beating this.
